Lots of good can be said about this movie.
If it doesn't avoid every cliché, the story of that young libanese woman is well filmed, the acting is good and 90's Paris is well re-created.
The quality is enough to let pass some story issues (like the royalist woman that disappears once she fulfilled her role: supplying an appartment, or worse the justification she's giving for the risk ran after the police control scene).
No, with all that taken in account, this gives a nice movie, at least worthy of a 7. However something's missing and outside recreating Paris atmosphere of the 90's and following the lead character, the movie driving force diminishes after the first half. Plus - and one of the final scene, with the East-European woman tells exactly that - her situation, as difficult as it is, stays under a level many migrants meet and some of the debates can be perceived as a bit overtaken by reality.
